An id for a friend who found this in the Red Desert of south-central Wyoming. Is anybody able to tell what exactly it is? It is an unusual one. Thanks for the help.

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to have a look at these fossils I've come across recently. I live in the Red Desert of Wyoming and these weren't too far from where I live. Very unique, haven't seen quartz veins like this in fossilized wood aside from some small examples here and there. The other I do believe to be bone, possibly a vertebrae? Also think it may have had opal included in its mineral replacement. There's an area on it exposed to and shows impressive mineralization. Your professional input is greatly appreciated! Again, thank you!

From the album: Adventure is an individual thought!
It is not unusual to find what is left of an antique car, abandoned next to a 1915 dirt road in the Red Desert. This was one of several we came across looking for agates and JADE slicks. Where was this... west central Wyoming. You try to find it by accident like we did. No Jade slicks on this trip, but some chalcedony. Jeffery City is a good place to ask questions for Jade areas. Water and fuel should be topped off when ever possible. This is not a playground for the naive. This is pure prospecting and thousands of open acres all to yourself. Not for the "faint of heart" but if you find a 150 pound Wyoming Green Jade Slick... why you just might post it on the Forum.
